A. POLITICAL LESSON.

A Bourbon is described as a person who
neither learns nor forgets anything. 1t is
evident that eX-Representative WILLIAM
E. LEE is not a Bourbon. Whether Mr..
LEE forgot anything during his recent leg
islative experience or not we are unable to
say, but We have the evidence that he did
learn something. The last issue of the Long
Prairie Leader announces that Hon. W.
4. LEE will be ready to open his new bank
by the 10th of May" Mr.. LEE came up to
the last legislature with the impression
that he was to be speaker of the house of
representatives. Taking superficial
glance at the situation, Mr. LEE was iusti-
fed in that belief. The legislature had
been elected as a distinctively farmer legis-
lature. Mr.. LEE was posing as the farmer
candidate. He discarded the conventional
necktie and collar which are such an
abominatiOn in the sight of the average
granger. 1t was even charged by his
adversarieS that the farmer candi-
date went so far in the direc-
ton of catering to rural tastes and
styles of dress as to sprinkle wheat bran on
his clothing and to apply tallow to his
brogan boots instead of shining them with
shoe polish such as city swells are in the
habit OF using. There was nothing left
undone which was calculated to make him
perfect in his impersonation of a typical
farmer. And yet with all his precautionary
management MI. LEE was mortified to find
himself so far distanced in the race for the
speakership that he never caught sight of
the goal, and that, too, by city chap who
wore store clothes and silk hat. The de-
feated candidate for speaker learned val
liable lesson and he is disposed to profit by
it. In addition to becoming dress re-
former he is going to become banker, and
the next time he turns up as a candidate
for political honors lie will start his canvass
on solid foundation.

A MORMON EXODUS.

Whether the prominent Mormon who de-
clares that the Mormons are contemplating
removing to Central Dakota speaks by the
card or not, it is impossible to say, but if
they have any such Intention the quicker
they disabuse their minds Of it the better.
Dakota is broad territory, and it contains
thousands of acres of unoccupied land, but
lhere is not room enough within her limits
for Mormon community. The Dakota
reople are too sturdily fixed in their ideas
of right and wrong to permit the presence
Of such unwelcome neighbors. and the fem
mine population of Dakota is already too
limited Tor the Dakota bachelors to tamely
endure the spectacle Of the Mormon matri-
monial monopoly. The United States laws.
whose enforcement now brings trial and
tribulation upon the Mormons in Utah,
would operate fully as well in Dakota, and
the Latter Day Saints would gain nothing
by the removal. If they are really con-
templating an exodus, let them cross the
line into Mexico. This country would be
well rid of them, and our less eXacting
neighbors in the South would probably not
object very strongly to their presence.

A TREMBLING MONARCHY.

The monarchs of Europe believe that
lie well stuck to answers the purpose of
truth. For that reason official bulletins
continue to be issued from the various Eu-
ropean courts stating that the rumor Of
recent attempt to assassinate the car OF
Russia was without foundation. The
crowned heads unite in an effort to create
the impression that his imperial highness,
the ruler of all the Russias, is the darling
object of alteration in the hearts of all his
subjects, and that they would not suffer a
hair of his head to be injured. Notwith-
standing these repeated official proclama-
tons from the royal courts, the car himself
is not made more comfortable. for he knows
that the attempt at assassination was made
and came very near being successful. But
that is not the worst Of it. The car has
discovered that there is deep-laid
conspiracy throughout Europe to de-
throne all the present rulers, to overthrow
all forms of monarchy and to establish
constitutional government in its stead. This
conspiracy is not confined to Russia alone.
1t is widespread throughout Europe, and
has Judgment in every European nation
under mOnarchical government. Nor is it
confined to the reckless class of population.
Its prime movers are of the upper and more
intelligent classes of people. In Russia, as
well as in some other countries, it extends
10 scions of royalty itself, and is more prev
alent in the armies than was ever hereto
fore supposed. 1t is no wonder that Europe
is so 10th to 90 to war when there is not
single European ruler to-day who can con-
tide in the loyalty of his own army. The
fate of the late Emperor NAPOLEON is still
fresh in the minds of Europes rulers. They
saw the imperial star OF France set forever.
and the rise of the new republic on a foun-
dation so stable that it promises to be per-
petual. There is not monarch in Europe
to-day who, if called upon to lead his armies
to battle against an invading foe, would not
tremble with apprehension that the same
tate which overlook NAPOLEON would be
his. and that his kingdom would go to pieces
in the same manner that the empire of
France was shattered. This apprehension
is Europe's best guard against war; But in
ternatlonal peace does not wholly pacify the
royal mind of Europe. The dread of in
surrections and conspracies and internal
revolutions is omnipresent. There is no
escaping the apprehension of an outburst of
socialism and nihilism. which exist as a per-
petual menace to monarchy. The crowned
heads may proclam peace. but there is no
peace. They may issue bulletins asserting
that the lives of the rulers are not in danger.
and yet these Sane rulers live in hourly
dread OF dynamite. The life of a European

A eROAD-MINDED MAN.

The prominent Dakotian who has been
talking to the GLOBES Washington CORE
spondent about Gov. CHURCH and Dakota
affairs generally has made very fair esti
mate of the great territory's excellent eXecu
tive. Gov. CHURCH is man who is essen
TALLY independent and one of his strongest
elements of value as governor is the fact that
he has affiliations with no clique or faction,
but intends to treat all sections of the terri
tory with strict fairness and impartiality.
He is a man who realizes forcibiy that a
man who occupies the gubernatoral chair
is not the master, bnt the servant of the
people, and that, therefore, it is his duty to
administer the affairs of the territorial gov
eminent in the popular and not in any fac
tional interest. There is no danger that
Gov. CHURCH will be lacking in the per-
Torrance of his duty. His action already
during his brief occupancy of his official
position has demonstrated that fact. He is
q Democrat in the broadcast sense of the
word and will give Dakota an adminstra-
ton that will serve as a model to future
executives.

THE STATE ADMINISTRATIONS.

The new state administration has not
been on trial very long. yet it has been long
enough to convince honest-minded and
well-meaning Republicans of the mistake
that was made when the party submitted to
ring domination in the last Republican state
convention. No class of our people are
more painfully aware Of the mistake that
was made than the farmers. Their guber
Material candidate, Mr.. GIBBS, has been
comfortably provided for as reward for
his share of the deal by which the present
incumbent of the executive office was NOM
mated, but the great mass of the farmers
find themselves in worse condition, if
possible, than they were before. In the
exercise of the appointing power the adj
ministratlon has not only shown an inditfer
ence to public opinion. but has exhibited an
almost insane desire to pose in autOcratic
attitude. The governor snaps his finger at
the public in about the same spirit that
VANDERBILT gave indulgence to his pro-
family. He seems to consider that fidelity
to the pledges made by bartering politicians
Is OF more consequence in the matter of APP
pontmentS than the public interest. 1t is
true that not much else could be expected of
an administration which is the handiwork of
bosssm and the offspring of political Jug
glery. The people who helped to put it
into power ought not to complain. because
they had fair warning of what was to come.
Ihe GLOBE is not disappointed in the new
administration, because it il; rapidly devel-
oping into just what we predicted it would

SIBLEY, Ia, March 1S.--A few DAYS ago
while two men of Elk Point were chopping
timber near that place they came to tree
measuring about four feet in diameter, and
upon looking up one of them saw what he
supposed to be grape vine dangl ing from
limb. When the tree was felled, how
ever, the supposed grape vine proved to be
rope. Upon examination it was discov-
cred that the rope was about ten feet long
and tied to the limb with a double half
hitch knot and the opposite ED made into
hangman'S moose. 1t was apparent that
some unfortunate had paid the penalty of
death, as the end of the rope containing the
moose was saturated with blood. 1t was
also discovered that an imprint five feet
seven inches in length and shaped like a
human body lay Immediately under where
the rope had but short time before been sus-
pended. A still further examination proved
conclusively that murder had been COM
mitted, but as to the crime and its perpe-
traitors probably nothing more will ever be

unravel the mystery have proved unavail-
